7'1 white guys....eh.
Those podcasts Simmons and Rose are doing with some of the draftees are pretty interesting.

I've watched a few of the abbreviated versions. Those don't seem very insightful. Seems like the longer ones might be worthwhile.
Lotta people comparing Len to Illgauskas. I suppose that wouldn't be the worst draft pick of all time. I'm curious to hear what you think about the top guys - McLemore, Porter, Oladipo, Len, Noel - since you actually watch college basketball.
If Dion Waiters could handle being the third guard, I'd be intrigued by McLemore. Cavs could have sort of a Golden State vibe with three dynamic guards.

Well, with Texas being so putrid last year, it turned me off to most of it. Beyond highlights I didn't really see any of them.
Is this the offseason thread as well? Lots of Spurs fans talking themselves into signing David West. It's a pipe dream, but man would that be a sick addition.

Splitter and Ginobili come back. Blair and Neal are most likely gone.

If Dwight or Josh Smith knew what was good for them.... (would never happen, but they need a coach like Pop)

Geoff and I texted during the draft, so this thread died. But I hope everyone is following the excellent Simmons/Rivers feud. Rivers took it to 11 last night with his accusations. Genuine animosity here. Been a while since we had a good sports feud.
Feel any better about Bennett yet?

Guesses on where Dwight ends up? I know Houston is the trendy pick, but I'm going with the Lakers.
Also, what should our bet be? Since you did win and all...

Meh, we can take the year off on the bet. That was excruciating.
As for Dwight, looks like Houston. I kind of hope it is Houston in case the Cavs can swing for Omer Asik.
I don't feel any better about Bennett. But I do like the Russian guy they got.

I'm pleased with the Spurs signing of Belinelli. Very pleased. Plus we still have a MLE to potentially use on another good player. Neal is gone, Splitter and Ginobili are back. Cooler heads prevailed in the front office.
Dwight to Houston. I read that in the Lakers meeting Kobe said he wanted to teach Dwight how to be a champion. I bet that set D off. Good get for the Rockets, I guess. Supposedly Asik demanded to be traded, so maybe Cavs get him after all.

Jack is a decent pickup for cleveland.

Not a bad pickup. They did overpay by a tad and the contract is a bit long, but I'm ok with that. Especially when last year's backup PGs were Donald Sloan and Jeremy Pargo.
Still want to see them grab a true center. Either a trade for Asik or Pekovic.
